Ok, now the D keyed the offense and we're starting to roll.

UT-SDSU looks more like a football game than a basketball game at this point.

jbergey22 · 03-18-2010, 10:27 PM

Nice performance today Big East. You appeared ripe for an ass kicking but this is more impressive than I could have imagined.

And FU for screwing up my brackets.

I wish CBS wasn't intent on making me watch Kansas destroy Lehigh.

RedKingGold · 03-18-2010, 10:35 PM

The Big East beat my mother and raped my father.

panerd · 03-18-2010, 10:36 PM

Big 8 schools represent!

sterlingice · 03-18-2010, 10:38 PM

See- it only took a few minutes for Texas to get the game down to 2

SI

sterlingice · 03-18-2010, 10:38 PM

Or tie, even

panerd · 03-18-2010, 10:40 PM

You think coaches like Steve Fisher look across the press row at coaches like Bruce Pearl and think "What happened? He is suppposed to be the up and comer and I am supposed to be coaching a big time program."

RainMaker · 03-18-2010, 10:40 PM

If Lehigh can get some calls, they could make this interesting in the 2nd half at least.

Are you and MBBF related?

THE GAME IS FIXED.

Yeah, that's what I said. Kansas plays a real physical style of play against Lehigh and their only hope of keeping it close is to get to the line a lot and keep Aldrich on the bench. If the refs let them play, it'll be a huge blowout. If the refs get picky with calls, Lehigh might be able to hang.

The Nova game on the other hand was a different story. Not sure what the fuck that was.

Yeah, it's a really good academic school. I like when schools like that do well in sports. Always root for Northwestern, Stanford, Vanderbilt, etc.

RedKingGold · 03-18-2010, 10:56 PM

Lehigh is really good for engineering and business. Not so good for hot chicks. They all go to Philadelphia.

Has MBBF told you about Mizzou's academics?

Warhammer · 03-18-2010, 11:00 PM

Seems like every other word in the Tenn - SDSU game is penetration. I think the only other person that has gotten that much penetration lately is Tiger...

RainMaker · 03-18-2010, 11:00 PM

No, I'm more interested in knowing his thoughts on the PS3.

mauchow · 03-18-2010, 11:30 PM

It's so interesting to see the perfect brackets out there right now.. One I just went through had St. Mary's, Georgia Tech, Washington and Murray St in the final four, with Washington winning it all. But they've got a perfect bracket so far.

Then there is someone who picked Minnesota to win it all. Had to chuckle at that.

Swaggs · 03-18-2010, 11:38 PM

Did the Big Ten play any games today?

Kind of an odd quirk, if not.

henry296 · 03-18-2010, 11:40 PM

No big 10 and only 1 ACC team.

mauchow · 03-18-2010, 11:41 PM

Awwwe, shit. I clicked refresh in MMOD and I've gotten the capacity reached error so now I can't watch any game online.

SackAttack · 03-18-2010, 11:57 PM

For at least the next 3:30, I'm in first place in the FOFC bracket contest on Yahoo. I better comment on that for posterity while I can.

sterlingice · 03-18-2010, 11:58 PM

Man, Texas had a good look but it didn't fall

SI

RainMaker · 03-19-2010, 12:01 AM

Tennessee-SDSU features two of my favorite team names in college sports. Kind of a sloppy game by both but looks like it's going to be a really close finish.

CBS, please switch to Wake-Texas.

EagleFan · 03-19-2010, 12:01 AM

WTF CBS? There's a 1 point game with 1 minute and a half left and a 3 point game with a little over two minutes left and they are staying on the Kansas game?

sterlingice · 03-19-2010, 12:02 AM

Sweet turnaround in the SDSU game

SI

Swaggs · 03-19-2010, 12:02 AM

Damnit... again with the switch.

JonInMiddleGA · 03-19-2010, 12:02 AM

motherfucking cbs just abruptly switched off the UT game ... in the market with the largest UT alumni base outside of Tennessee

sterlingice · 03-19-2010, 12:03 AM

TEXAS! The iron was kind!

SI

mauchow · 03-19-2010, 12:03 AM

wtf CBS.

They literally cut out the UNLV/UT game right in the middle of a possession... which apparently UNLV converted a bucket on that possession to make it a 1 point game. Both games are at the end, you can't do that shit. Split-screen it if anything...

Swaggs · 03-19-2010, 12:03 AM

Damn... the Texas guy almost goaltended on that three. That would have been great to watch in film study.

EagleFan · 03-19-2010, 12:06 AM

Thankfully it ended, we had to wait for the blowout to finish before seeing the good games...

JonInMiddleGA · 03-19-2010, 12:06 AM

wtf happened to staying with your primary game?

EagleFan · 03-19-2010, 12:06 AM

There have been some good games today.

sterlingice · 03-19-2010, 12:06 AM

Well, whoever that was on Wake got all arm-- err... apparently ball, there

SI

Lathum · 03-19-2010, 12:07 AM

OMG, did he really foul on the 30 foot 3 there? They called that?

sterlingice · 03-19-2010, 12:08 AM

That three point foul was a weak call, too. It's not that they're biased. It's just that they suck (except in the Nova mob game)

SI

JonInMiddleGA · 03-19-2010, 12:08 AM

whoever is doing the switching for cbs ought to be taken out & shot repeatedly, starting with both knees then a full clip in the gut, followed by each finger, both wrists, and then his elbows

Swaggs · 03-19-2010, 12:08 AM

damn... Tennessee nails the three and then fouls on SDSU's three.

RainMaker · 03-19-2010, 12:09 AM

Bad call I think.

Timeout. Switch.

Timeout. Switch.

Swaggs · 03-19-2010, 12:10 AM

That call probably earned them two more commercials. $$$
